Tempio Pausania · Gallura

Cork House Gallura

The Melis harvest · Since 1952

Cork oaks in Gallura are stripped on a nine-year cycle. The Melis family turns that harvest into trays, stools, and vessels that smell faintly of forest after rain. Nothing here is disposable: the tree regenerates, and the material ages into a soft, honeyed grey.
